Business health insurance that turns the boss into a hero

Why it pays to have Vitality business health cover

Our unique mix of great medical cover and wellness rewards can give you a healthier, happier, more productive team. It also gives your employees fast access to private GPs, consultants, hospitals, high-quality treatment and a Full Cover Promise. Not to mention a ready-made rewards package that motivates them to stay healthy and form positive long-term lifestyle habits.

Our Full Cover Promise

A ready-made employee rewards package

Higher productivity. Lower absenteeism

On average, UK employers lose 27.5 days* of productive time per employee each year as a result of staff absenteeism and underperformance due to ill-health. Research has also shown that small businesses whose employees make the most of our wellness rewards enjoy 26% lower absence rates**.

Better, end-to-end private care

Your employees get fast access to a private Vitality GP and the right consultant, based entirely on their medical needs. They can also get the latest drugs and treatments in top UK hospitals. Plus, our Full Cover Promise guarantees to pay all eligible consultant and anaesthetist fees.

How would you describe Vitality to someone who isn't part of the programme?

"Vitality offers a generous and thoughtful health insurance focussing on the right areas to make it good value for money. The benefits completely outweigh the cost of the package and encourage an interest in improving physical and mental health. Vitality are great at making health awareness fun and interactive and promote a positive attitude to making simple but important life changes."

Fast access to treatment

Our Vitality GP app gives employees video consultations within 48 hours and 24/7 access to a private GP helpline. If they need treatment, the Vitality GP can authorise minor diagnostic tests and onward consultant referrals within days. This means your employees enjoy welcome reassurance, at what can be a difficult time, and faster recovery times to get them back up running as soon as possible.

Healthy Business Discount

You’ll get up to 25% off your premium if none of your insured employees have been diagnosed or had any consultations, test or treatment for cancer, mental or heart problems in the last two years or no claims for joint issues – including arthritis and back problems – in the last six months. To qualify, you just need to give us permission to contact your employees via email.

How has the mood changed in the workplace since you joined Vitality?

“The team interacts every day in some way about Vitality, whether it is talking about what activity we will do, if they have earned their points, how many steps we have logged, and even what film we will watch at the cinema. It has brought about a really nice team atmosphere and is something the team can enjoy together."
